The design process is the transformation of an client’s idea who’s vision sees needs or wants by consumers or the marketplace at large, into a product that satisfies these needs.

The design of a new product consists of the following stages:

Products are designed to bring improvement to the customer. They are created from a commitment and desire to understand customers’ needs and behavior. To improve upon something or altogether re-invent it.

Basically, to enhance the customers overall experience is the desired goal.

In today’s global economies, product design benefits a company when it matches products with local requirements in the global marketplace. Businesses which follow the one size fits all rule, will not be as successful internationally. Organizations have to design products localized because tastes, standards, prices, legislation and cultural differences influence customer choice from country to country.
